The doctor gave false certificates to immigrants so that they were exempted from taking English during naturalization

Awaisi was found guilty of conspiracy to commit a crime against the United States and making and using forged documents.

Awaisi conspired with psychologist Firoza Van Horn to create fake medical records for immigrants who applied for US citizenship. False medical records gave applicants a medical exemption from the English proficiency test during the naturalization exam.

Awaysi performed bogus medical examinations and misdiagnosed various illnesses to citizenship applicants. He also wrote medically unnecessary prescriptions for controlled substances, including opioids, to support his fraudulent diagnoses.

Van Horn has previously pleaded guilty to conspiring with Avaisi and is currently awaiting sentencing.
